45Nrth

My LBS clued me in to 45Nrth so I thought I'd give these a try. I'm so glad I did because the Sturmfist 3 lets me ride in cold weather without the usual agony I experience after 45 minutes. My hands and feet are always cold so I needed a solution for riding mid winter in the northeast. Honestly, this glove is a game changer and besides being very warm they are plenty dextrous to deal with shifting and breaking. I've tried a lot of winter gloves and these are the only ones that are noticeably different from the pack. One last thing, they are super easy to get on and off and the cinch around the cuff is beautifully executed.

These studs are pretty much impossible to beat for their grip over others studs on the market and they make a huge difference over standard, non-concave studs, especially in fat bike tires that don't have studs on the outer edge of tires. I've had these grip well on dense hardpack ice where other studs just skidded around like they were an ice skate. Very well suited for the Wrathchild 27.5 tires. While a tad expensive for 300pk, at least I don't have to worry about buying any for awhile as my tires shed studs.

When first looking at boots I was not sold on the clipless option, but these boots have changed my mind.
Overall the fit is as advertised. No need to size up for larger warmer socks, it's already included.
Boots have been warn at 0 deg F and warmer and each time my feet were almost too warm.
The BOA system is quite nice, foot is easy to get in and out of the boots. I wish there were 2 BOAs though like it's warmer brother. The clamping system seems to be quite hard to get snug at the toe section of the boots.
Mud/water resistant up to the little notch in the boot to cuff. At that point the tongue of the boot separates. (just above the second eye in the picture).

I bought two sets of Dillenger 4 60 stud tires for our fat tire E-bikes. They grip the snow plowed roads very well. We have extended our ride season into the dead of winter.
This is great because it will be mid April before the snow melts away in our neighborhood.
